Description
The Croft is a house dating from around 1760, with additions made in the 19th century to the left-hand side. It presents a symmetrical facade constructed of random stone with flint infilling, accented by red brick quoins and window dressings. The house is two storeys high, with modillioned eaves and a hip tiled roof punctuated by two end stacks. A projecting hood, detailed with dentils, shelters the front door. Five 19th-century wooden casement windows are visible. A double-stepped pathway leads to the front door, flanked by railings and featuring an ornamental lamp bracket centrally positioned.
